My understanding is that the connection will be made on the port the listener is listening on (usually 1521 or 1526), and then the connection is moved to a different socket through the usual means (on a port above 1024). This leaves the range of 1025 to 65535 for the dynamic range of ports available.
Is this what you're looking for?
